• What do you do in your current rol
In my current role I am managinginfrastructure project called
Eurofacilities (infrastructure) in many European countries, which
will offer access to advainnovative imaging technologies to
European life scientists, regardless where they are working at the
moment. Euro-EC under the FP7, during which we are developing
plans, regulations will be used during the construction phase.
Establishing infrastructure on this scale, which should serve
whole Europe, means that we need to coordinate activities of
scientists that are working with imaging in Europe (e.g. biologists
and medics who are using imaging technologies, engineers and
physicists developing novel technologies, bioinformaticians
developing new image analysis software) and also to work close with
national funders and governments who will fund the building of this
imaging infrastructure.
In this project I am involved in general communication with the
public and with the European scientific community (through webpage,
newsletters, emails, press releases), with individual scientists
who are leading imaging facilitiesBioImaging, and with all other
partners on the project. I am also involved in drafting and
developing procedures and regulations that will be used for the
future operation of the EuroBioImaging (e.g. developing the whole
application process for facilities wishing to join EuroBioImaging,
planning and organizing the evaluation and selection process,
working on criteria they have to fulfill in order to join
etc.).
Beside this project management side, I am also inproject
involving some of the researchers involved in Euroother European
research infrastructure projects (e.g. for mouse models, electron
microscopy, data management). This keepstrack of the tasks and
experiments that need to be performed, following their progress and
strategically addressing scientific problems and solutions.

• What do you enjoy most about the job?
What I really enjoy (and why I took this job) is that it gives
me a chance to look and influence science in Europe from the broad
perspective that will change the way scientists in Europe work in
future. They wall advanced imaging technologies, regardless if they
have them at their home institution and without a need to establish
extensive collaboration. This effect of my work gives me strong
motivation to face all challenges it brings w
What I also enjoy a lot is the chance to meet and work with the
broad scientific community of Europe, creating a strong network for
my future career steps. There are 1400 stakeholders interacting
with the project and over 250 active Partners ssome of the best
European researchers, as well as industry representatives, members
of the funding bodies, research councils or ministries.
• What are the challenges you face in your job
Considering that project partners aris done over email or phone
and most of my work is bound to the computer. For a “peoples
person” like I am that is sometimes a challenge. But such challenge
helps you developing your writing skills and extend your knowledge
of the official EU vocabulary.
The other challenge comes from the fact that you are part of the
big group of people, who all influence the project for which you
are working. This teamwork has many positive sides, but you also
have to be flexible and accept other people’s views, ideas or
actions that are influencing your work.
• What attracted you to this position
As said above, the chance to put my stamp (regardless how small
at the moment) on the development of scientific landscape
• What skills have been
The most important are strong communication and organization
skills. You also need a strong ability to keep a broad view of the
many aspects of the project, develop longstrategies, talk and write
in a very professional way, but at the same time build a friendly
team spirit. You also have to have strong affinity to understand EU
science policies and decision making procedures. Also equally
relevant are strong empathyput yourself in someone else shoes and
anticipate their reactions, thinking patterns etc.
• What is your one tip for
Project management has many facets and comes with
varicomplexity, depending on the project and the organization you
are working for. Once you are invited to the interview, you should
get a clear picture of the tasks expected from you and the amount
of administrative tasks that you wsituation, you will have to cope
